Abstract

Es wird ein Verfahren zur Erstellung einer Datenbank für Programminformationen vorgeschlagen, die einem Bediener eines Unterhaltungselektronikgerätes, insbesondere TV-Gerät, bereitgestellt wird. Dabei werden die Programminformationsdaten über Rundfunk und zwar mit dem bestehenden Videotextdatendienst von den verschiedenen Programmanbietern übertragen.
Die Erfindung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß bestimmte Videotextseiten der verschiedenen Programmanbieter auf Programminformationsdaten hin durchsucht werden und daß die so aufgefundenen Programminformationen in die Datenbank aufgenommen werden. Mit der so gewonnenen Datenbank kann ein elektronischer Programmführer leicht aufgebaut werden ohne, daß der bestehende Datendienst der Programmanbieter geändert werden muß.
